I wasn't even half joking, Jen. I was completely joking. Jesus. I hug my gramps, who has a crap bag. I change babies. I help scabby homeless people get down from the bus if they need assistance.

I also loved my little brother, but that didn't stop me from encouraging him to eat jelly beans out of the gutter. And, for the record, he was rarely sick as a child.

I have cats. They use a litter box. Barely. They like to use it, and then they like to kick dirty litter all over the bathroom floor, the hallway, my living room. They then like to jump on my kitchen counters, which I DO thoroughly clean before using. So, poopy paws all over my house. But at least they pretend at being "toilet" trained.

I've been picking up a LOT of dog poop on a daily basis for about 4 years now and cleaning cat boxes a lot longer than that. I certainly don't fine it enjoyable, but it doesn't disgust me. Dogs lick my face pretty regularly (and my cats do too) and it doesn't bother be. Baby saliva, however, is GROSS. But, I don't think that is really about germs. Baby saliva is worse than germs.

I have gagged changing the litter box on more than one occasion. This usually prompts me to curse the very existence of my cats and I daydream giving them up for adoption. Five minutes later, litter paws and all, they are back in my good graces. Love, it's a kicker.

I was a bit nauseated watching an otherwise adorable child at Disneyland a couple of nights ago. She was in love with the Christmas decor, all dressed up like a little Santa, and she was eating something that was causing her to salivate and drool large globs of...drool...down her chin. Turned my stomach a bit. She looked like the alien in Alien.

Of course, poor NM has seen me take a bite of something only to have the bite of something fall right out of my mouth mid-chomp. (In fact, more people than just NM have seen this.) Because, much like the adorable child at Disneyland, I too know how to turn a stomach now and again.

Madz used to drool like that. It was totally totally gross. I'd have to change her shirt about every hour because it would be soaked. Babies are totally disgusting. And old people aren't much better. I'm jumping off a cliff before I hit the gross level.

And almost teenagers are just as bad. It's apparently horrible to bathe, brush your teeth or brush your hair.

Nope, not preggers. :p

I'm sorry for misunderstanding your post.

I bathed, brushed my teethe and brushed my hair. But did any boy kiss me? Yes. But only a couple. And I had my designs on more than a couple, dammit.

This thread is full of the funny today! Virtual mojo to all for making me laugh.

Now I have to go change my drool-y shirt.
